Photos: Bawumia receives smart drivers’ license

Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia received his New Smart Drivers’ License on Tuesday, as he launched a new drivers’ license and vehicle registration smart cards.

The new license will contain a contactless chip loaded with the owner’s bio-data and the driver’s personal information for secure identification.

It will also make use of state-of-the-art-technology; for secure ID printing that can be easily integrated with other systems of the DVLA.

Acquiring the new driver’s license will attract an additional Gh?91 separate from the present charges on all other services including replacement (Gh?64 + Gh?91 = Gh?155), new license (Gh?166 +Gh?91 = Gh?257) and transferring a foreign license to a Ghanaian one (Gh?364 + Gh?91 = Gh?445).
